spruecutter96 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Rush's "Spirit of Radio". Starts in amazing form and keeps getting better as the track continues. It sends a small shiver down my spine, every time in hear it. The band's "Closer To The Heart" also has an epic opening. Cheers. Chris. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers. Chris. If you're going iconic Rush intros , then I'd be looking at 2112..... Temples of Syrinx Or Tom Sawyer on Moving Pictures.

Temples of Syrinx To be honest, I've always thought the Syrinx intro is good, but the other two tracks just demand your attention from the very first note. To each their own. Cheers. Chris.

So many good Rush intros to choose from... the hard part is choosing which songs DON'T grab your attention from the first note (particularly the 1980s albums ) Edited December 1, 2022 by IanHx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whofan Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 One thing I’ve noted is how old most of the intros chosen are. I don’t mean the Beethovens, etc., but other than my choice of Kylie, which is 2001, everything else seems to be from the early ‘80’s back. I did think of Blue Monday and How soon is now, but again, early 80’s. Is it me, or is the music of the 21st century unknown to everyone else, or is it just me who finds it mostly forgettable? (excepting Metallica, Iron Maiden, Def Leppard, new wave of prog rock, Todd Rundgren, burble burble, ribble ribble …….) Oh, here’s another oldie; 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
